V  «  s The @ MIRR OR EDITORS Nellie Lantrip Gail Rogers wamba Junior Collei and A. H. S. Library Fulton, Mississippi 1960 i ITAWAMBA JUNIOR COLLEGE and ITAWAMBA COUNTY AGRICULTURAL HIGH SCHOOL Fulton, Mississippi Dedications In appreciation of Mr. M. T. Seitz, a teacher who has given 25 years of service to Itawamba County Agricultural High School and to Itawamba Junior College, a teacher who has influenced not only his students in the classroom but, through these students, the industrial development of Itawamba County, a man who is admired and respected by all who know him — we, the IJC staff, dedicate the 1960 edition of the MIRROR. In Appreciation We, the lAHS staff, proudly dedicate this 1960 edition of the MIRROR to Mrs. Ruth Owings. Her untiring efforts have helped our school to receive Top Honors in the new QUIZ ' EM ON THE AIR series. College Administration Activities Athletics Music Organizations Staff Classes Features High School Contents Features Classes Organizations Athletics The Deans Message Dear Students: The progress of Itawamba Junior College since September, 1948, has taken many forms. The two types of progress have been in the growth of student population and in the enrich- ment of the curriculum. In 1948 we opened the Junior College with a class of 114 students. This enrollment has grown to over 600 students. During the opening session we offered the following curricula in six fields: agriculture, business, preparatory for B.A. degree, engineering, home economics, and preparatory for the B.S. degree. Since 1948 we have added the following curricula: education, industrial educa- tion, music, band, and nursing. General education has replaced the preparatory for the B.A. and the B.S. degrees. The following technological courses have developed during this period: business technology, chemical technology, civil technology, industrial technology, and medical technology. Officials of the school are very grateful to all students, past and present, for your coopera- tion in the steady development of your Junior College. Sincerely yours, J. S. Crubaugh Dean of Itawamba Junior College The Presidenfs Message Itawamba Junior College has made remarkable progress in its physical facilities over the past ten years. When the junior college was established in 1948, there were only six build- ings on the campus. Since that time, approximately thirty additional buildings have been added to the campus. The old buildings were completely reworked or eliminated. In 1948, the assessed evaluation of the buildings and grounds was $286,472.86, according to the Mis- sissippi State Audit Department. In 1958, the assessed evaluation of Itawamba Junior Col- lege was $1,270,990.14, according to the Mississippi State Audit Department. This means that the assessed evaluation of the buildings and grounds at the end of the 1957-58 school term was more than $1,000,000.00. This shows that much progress has been made over the past ten years. This progress has been made by the complete cooperation of the people, the faculty, boards of supervisors, and trustees. It is hoped that more progress will be made during the next ten years. Officers of Administration Itawamba Junior College and Itawamba County Agri- cultural High School are competently staffed with a group of very capable, effi- cient, and willing adminis- trative officers, under the inspiring leadership of Presi- dent Philip A. Sheffield, and supported by a core of loyal teachers and other employ- ees. The staff continues to grow in number and in effi- ciency along with the growth in the size of the student body. 6 % w m jJ ' i PHILIP A. SHEFFIELD President C. R.

The leads were played by Terry Thornton, Annette Shumaske, George Martin, Ruth Duvall, Charles McLendon. Nellie Lantrip, the newly appointed 1960 editor, and Faye Daniel, the 1959 editor, of the MIRROR, student year- book, are happy over the job at hand — the dispensing of about 600 copies of the MIRROR to the students at IJC. At right: The IJC Student Council holds elections to select the 1960 student council president and vice-president.

STYLE SHOW IJC Home Economics majors model their own creations in the annual Spring style show. They are students of Miss Edna E. Hicks. Miss Pauline Holladay, Instructor in English at IJC, was reader for the girls as they modeled. THIS IS YOUR LIFE Present and former stu- dents of Miss Edna E. Hicks honor her with a This Is Your Life party at the last Home Eco- nomics Club meeting of the 1959 term of school. They presented her with the club Scrapbook, which covers all her years of teaching at IJC.

The students who participate in the three competitive sports are shown on the following 8 pages. i ! i i College Baseball Since the early years of IJC ' s exist- ence, many Scouts for professional base- ball clubs have visited the campus each spring.

He is an avid baseball fan himself; he has seen his teams build up an enviable position in the North Division and in the State. His 1959 team ended the season with a tie for second place, North Division. Coach Ray Thornton, who formerly handled the football at IJC, in May, 1959, relieved Dean Crubaugh of his coaching duties, so that he could give more of his time to the affairs of the entire student body.

Director — Mrs. Mary Alice McCallister r Hi Itawamba Junior College Hall of Fame ! I These four Itawamba Junior College Sophomores were selected to the 1960 Hall of Fame: Jamie Tate, Tremont, Mississippi; David Hefflin, Baldwin, Mississippi; Martha Ruth Malone, Guntown, Mississippi; and Bobby Moore, Fulton, Mississippi. These students were chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, participation in campus activities, and their general attitude toward their work, toward other students, and toward the college staff. Cluhs and Other Organizations and Religious Groups at Itawamha Junior College Organizations play an important role at Itawamba Junior College. It is through these that the students receive the plus value of their college education — that some- thing that does not come from the meeting of classes nor from the informal associa- tion of students on the college campus. The various clubs, which are closely related to subject matter fields, give the student an opportunity to exercise his interest in that particular field. The major religious groups represented on the IJC campus work through-a campus organization. Each student can find a religious group with which he finds fellowship and an opportunity to exercise his spiritual development. Itawamha Junior College Student Council Eddie HaJl OFFICERS .

M SOPHOMORES ABOUT THE CAMPUS OF IJC Homecoming at Itawamba Junior College is always a happy occasion. On that day top honors go to the Sophomores. This year Martha Ruth Malone of Guntown was selected by the student body as Homecoming Queen. She was crowned at half-time by the President of the Student Body — Eddie Hall of Fulton. Who could look happier than these two? Of course, tests of any kind are obnoxious, even to Sophomores. You can imagine, then, how ob- noxious the first test of the Fall Term in English Literature is to Donald Graham, Jerry Neal, James Turner, Bobby Sheffield, and Virginia Scott. I ' m sure that the other members of this Sophomore class are just as happy that their agony is not on exhibit to the World. At left: A group of students from Amory make ready to board the bus at NOON! to return to Amory — The occasion for such early departure is a Monroe County Teachers ' Meeting. These students are, reading from left to right: James Laney, Tom Davidson, Buck Kennedy, Junior; Annette Shumaker, Doyle Thompson, and Ronald Clark. They thought they were escaping unnoticed, but they were quite pleased when the photographer happened along. FRESHMEN ABOUT THE CAMPUS AT IJC Floyd Dekker of Tupelo and Pat Evans of Nettle- ton coming from classes in the Science building for refreshments in the Rek Hall. Two freshman football players — James Merritt — Jerry Wilburn — cramming for term tests.

The 1959 lAHS baseball squad, a hard-hitting, hustling club, took the South Division title and went on to capture the Tombigbee Con- ference championship. In recognition of this, each player received a jacket. Their final record showed 6 wins and 6 losses. As this book must go to press before baseball season officially opens, we are unable to report on the team ' s success. Judging by the abund- ance of hitting strength, fine defensive ball, and the ability of the league ' s greatest coach, Mr. Prestage, we know that the 1960 season will be very successful. y ' -., DOWN TO-GO ' «|pf ' ' ip?,Jifr ' i|pi - ' Indian Squad Oswalt, Bowen, Chatham, Steele, Moore, Maxey, Stanley, Underwood, Reeves, McBee, Johnson, Strawhorn, Daniel, Stubblefield, Biggham, Wallace, Gray, Davis, Critz, Wilson, Spradling, Brown, Hood, Hardin, Sheffield, Ridings, Davis, Brown.
